Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

After leaving the training ground, Xu Jian patted Zhang Xu on the shoulder and said to him: "Go, follow me to the kitchen, I will treat you to good food, and you can tell me about you in the UK."

Zhang Xu replied: "Teacher Xu, I will invite you."

Surprisingly, Xu Jian's expression changed, and he said with a serious face: "You are hanging me up on the high-voltage line! The school stipulates that the faculty and staff cannot accept any gifts or meals from students, otherwise they will all be expelled. Even if you ask for a bitten egg, it will not work. "

Hearing Xu Jian's words, Zhang Xu gave up the idea of ​​inviting guests.

Because there are often accidents such as explosions, big explosions, and violent explosions on the training ground, it is a bit far from the main building complex of the school.

The road from the training ground to the cafeteria passes through a large area of ​​farmland. The straight ridge divides the field into neat squares like a chessboard.

It is the turn of late spring and early summer, and the plants planted in the farmland are in a period of thriving.

Looking into the fields from the road much higher than the farmland, colorful plants are distributed in small farmland, like a bunch of pixels of different colors squeezed together.

When he reached the edge of the field, Xu Jian stopped, looked at the direction of the farmland, and then said to Zhang Xu, "Zhang Xu, would you like to pick something to make cold dishes?"

Zhang Xu looked at the farmland for a while, and said to Xu Jian with a "hehe" face: "Teacher Xu, don't give me extra personal experience and coaching. I believe that once I walked into the field, those defensive formations I don’t know what it will make me look like."

Seeing that Zhang Xu was not fooled, Xu Jian smiled and said to him: "You can do it, you can see the doorway inside."

Zhang Xu smiled and said nothing. He would not say that when he returned to his hometown when he was a child, he wanted to run into the medicinal field behind the village to grow precious medicinal materials. Become a zongzi. Later, when he was laughed at by a group of elders, he heard that the formation in the field was specially arranged by the school teacher. The school also made the same arrangement in order to prevent students from sneaking into the field to pick something. After all, the straight-line distance between the two places is less than 20 kilometers, and some of the medicinal materials used by the school are purchased from the village.

On the following road, Xu Jian roughly explained to Zhang Xu some situations of the field defense formation.

Not long after, Zhang Xu followed Xu Jian to the vicinity of the canteen, and then Xu Jian took Zhang Xu halfway around and walked towards the back of the canteen.

"Let's go to the kitchen to find Lao Cai, he has a lot of good things." Xu Jian said.

As a result, as soon as the voice fell, there was a sound like a cow barking from the back door of the cafeteria.

Suddenly Zhang Xu and Xu Jian's eyes lit up, and then glanced at each other. Both of them could see the word "joy" in each other's eyes.

"It should be the one to listen to."

"Yes, it must be that."

When the two of them rushed to the door of the kitchen, they saw a group of people around a cage, discussing something happily.

After saying hello to a bunch of principals, directors and teachers around, Zhang Xu carefully looked at the contents of the cage.

It was a snake with thick arms and almost three meters long. Its body was white and its head was red. The cow-like sound came from its body.

And the temperature around the cage is frighteningly high, like standing next to a boiler.

But for the people around, this kind of temperature can be solved with a small spell.

"Where did this snake come from?" Xu Jian asked.

"The boss Zhang from Fuhu Village just brought it when he came to deliver medicinal materials. They grabbed it at Fangchenggang the day before yesterday and sold it to us." said the principal Li Jiuxi.

"It's so big, it took a lot of effort." Xu Jian sighed.

The red-headed and white-body Snake is not an ordinary snake, it is a kind of strange beast. Its characteristic is that it can generate heat. When it stays underground for a long time, the heat emitted from its body will evaporate the moisture in the surrounding soil, causing local drought.

When they gather and reproduce in large numbers, they can even cause large-scale droughts in some places.

If they hide near the spring, then the spring water will turn into a hot spring. In severe cases, it will heat the surrounding fish.

According to records, a brood of snakes once turned a piece of sweet potato underground into roasted sweet potatoes.

Therefore, it is a pest that is severely destructive to agriculture and is not on the protection list.

In ancient winters, they were often caught by people and used as heaters in the home, and they were stewed in the spring.

At this time, a little old man with half white hair walked out of the canteen, holding a wooden box in his hand.

After seeing him coming, Principal Li said to him: "Lao Cai, you have to show your hand today, and take a good look at Zhang Xu, who is back from the UK."

After seeing Zhang Xu, Lao Cai quickly put down Zhang Xu, came up and shook hands with Zhang Xu enthusiastically: "So you are the boss of Xiao Zhang, you are welcome to come to eat like last night every day, and the year-end award in our cafeteria is expected. is you!"

Zhang Xu:

The heat on the snake is its self-protection measure. When it encounters danger, the heat will burst out, so that predators can't speak to it. Even if it is killed, the temperature of the residual heat in a short time is not low, and the corpse without its own spell protection will even be cooked by its own temperature.

This also makes it necessary to solve the problem of heat insulation and fire prevention when people slaughter it.

The easiest way to deal with it is to starve the snake for a period of time to empty its intestines and stomach, then throw it into a pressure cooker filled with ingredients and a large pot of water, and then cover the pot and close it to death. When the snake drowns and cools down, the bones and snake gall are removed by the method of skeletal separation, and a large pot of snake soup is ready.

But the snake caught today is too big to fit in a normal pressure cooker, so I can only choose another way to eat it.

Due to the high temperature of Homo Snake, if it is handled in the kitchen, it might trigger a fire alarm, so the canteen chose to handle it outdoors.

Soon, Zhang Xu knew what the principal meant by letting Lao Cai "show his hand".

Lao Cai walked to the box he had just brought and kicked it~www.readwn.com~ The lid of the box was opened, and a knife handle was erected neatly inside.

Zhang Xu counted them, and there were 36 in total.

Then Lao Cai waved his hand and lifted the lid on the top of the cage where the snake was closed.

The next second, a shadow rushed out of the cage, and at the same time, the temperature in the air rose by a few minutes.

At this moment, a silver light flashed, and a pointed kitchen knife was accurately inserted into the snake's jaw. The tip of the knife pierced the snake's head and came out from the back of his head. Then the kitchen knife rose into the air against it and hung it in the air.

Immediately afterwards, another silver flash lighted up on Tomosaki's belly, and another kitchen knife opened its belly without any muddle.

At this time, several kitchen knives flew over and opened the belly of the snake, and then the kitchen knife that opened its belly just cut off the snake gall that had leaked out, and it just fell into a flying dish.

After disposing of other internal organs, all the kitchen knives in the box flew up. Except for the one holding the snake's head, the other 35 kitchen knives were flying around the snake like a bee around flowers.

In less than a minute, this nearly three-meter-long snake became a steaming piece of meat on a huge plate.

Finally, Cai poured a spoonful of sesame oil with ginger, coriander, chives, and pepper on the sliced ​​snake meat on the plate, and the fragrance burst out like a bomb, filling every corner of Zhang Xu's nose.

Principal Li took the steaming plate and greeted everyone around him: "Go, go to the third floor box."

Xu Jian patted Zhang Xu, who was stunned by Lao Cai's imperial chopper technique, and this made him recover from the shock.

Zhang Xu, who had recovered his senses, followed Xu Jian upstairs for a meal.
